    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

What kind of morph?

I found this one as a baby in a lot of several babies. He had that nice pattern and he had brown pigment, not black. I also bought another in the same lot (see picture 1), whith black pigment and same pattern. This "brown" baby has now faded to lesser brown, and he had never has any black pigment. Do you know what kind of morph he is? He is coming from Bell.

They both have abberant patterns. And the albino one does appear to be a bell albino. Got a pic of it's eyes??
 
Thank's. Abberrant was my guess to. Here is a clous up pic. Hope it's not too large

A bell albinos eyes would be pink..unless my computer is messed up it appears to have "normal" eyes, they both appear to just be abberant, i've seen many with lighter pigmentation, nice leo though...but i may be wrong..most "darker" albinos seem to have normal looking eyes as well...if he is from bell why not email mark or kim and ask?
 
Thank's. And where can I get it? I've looked on the net ,but it very difficult to find anything about him except a lot of good credits.
 
Yea, Dan is right, it's eyes would be pinker if it were a bell albino. But, I definetely think it's an albino, just by it colors. It looks a lot like a bell, if you just look at the body, but maybe it could just be a unique Tremper??
 
Its not an albino by any means... Its a very nice het :), which usually gets mistaken for an albino funny huh. Kelli, Robin, Myself and now you, have bell hets that look like this (Im very sure there are others ones out there but I havent seen many posted). It seems to be something that runs in the bell line, if im not mistaken I think Robin has a female, while the rest of us have males. What I wouldnt give to have that female Robin LOL Steve and I talk about it every now and then. It is probably a good idea to try to contact Mark and Kim about it; sorry I dont have their email address.

Im sure if Kelli and Robin see this thread they may post their leos for comparison. Heres my male....

Had me fooled. Looks a hell of a lot like a bell to me, but oh well.....
 
Kim's Bell het is also 'het for jungle/stripe' and was produced by me last year. He is the result of breeding a Bell Albino to the boldest Stripe in my collection.
Such a beautiful gecko, I really miss him.

Oh well I'll have to settle for my Jungle het Bell male that everyone seems to want!
 
Yes, but aberrant is only the markings, High yellow is the basic color, but what about the color of the markings - no black at all, just light brown and lilac. Breeders could have the same amount of colors as in cornsnake if they just started to breed towards different shades of the marking color, not only the marking or basic color.

Is lt possible that they can have varying degrees of albanisim?....like a percentage?

If that were true than you'd have to concede that bell albinos are dominant (codominant?) and not a simple recessive.
 
I have seen

A few leopards displaying the brownish trait. These are not albinos and in my collection usually result from breeding hypo's and super hypos. I have a pastel female that also has thrown some that look very similiar to this. I am keeping all her offspring this year and will see where this goes. Just my Two Cents.
